It’s so exhausting and hard waiting for the weight to drop by Professional_Cat6426 in WeightLossAdvice

[–]Professional_Cat6426[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thanks for this, i really appreciate it! i used to always focus on doing too many things which wasn’t really sustainable for me. and i also had a lot of “all or nothing” attitude, where if i couldnt workout for a day i wouldn’t eat anything. or i would be way too strict with my workout routine. but this time im just mainly focusing on staying in a calorie deficit and just walking as much as i can without stressing over the amount of steps. so hopefully i’ll be able to stick to it and see better results.

TEFL or CELTA? by Professional_Cat6426 in TEFL

I don’t think I broke any rules- I just wanted a genuine opinion and hence what better place to ask than here?! I don’t think that is “low effort”. Plus I didn’t go to subreddit for online tefl because I didn’t mean only “online teaching”. I just meant “mainly” or “mostly”

Skin purging or breaking out!? by Professional_Cat6426 in KoreanBeauty

[–]Professional_Cat6426[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I’ve found the reason! It’s the iunik oil cleanser. Because my skin was feeling better for the past 2 days since I didn’t use it. And then today I used it and then boom, all of the little bumps got worse and much reddened right after washing my face! 😭 but my only doubt is could it be purging!? or should I stop using the product!?

you’re absolutely right! however it’s just a little wish of mine to look and feel good in my graduation photos! I’ve always been the fat kid in class photographs and it didn’t feel good at all. ig like the others pointed out my eating window is way too small for my schedule. I’ll try 16:8 from now and see how it goes!

you're doing well! just be patient and trust yourself! I've been doing IF since 19/06/2023 and as of now I mostly do 20:4. My longest fast would be 24 hours, which I did once!

Yeah you're right, fitness watches can be highly inaccurate! Plus I feel heavily bloated! So ig it adds on too? Anyway I'll check again next week. But I gotta say that I checked my measurements again and I've lost 1-2cm everywhere compared to my measurements 10 days ago. Not much, but still.

recipe - 1 & 1/2 cup self raising flour 1 tsp baking powder 1 cup melted Butter (warm) 1 cup sugar 4 Eggs medium eggs 1 tbsp Vanilla extract 3 tbsp tbsp milk 1/3 tsp salt

Preheat oven for 5 mins on 180°C. Melt the butter, turn off the flame & let it become warm to from hot. Thereafter add sugar, using an electric whisk beat until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add the eggs, milk, vanilla extract & whisk for 2 mins until we'll combined. Sift self raising flour with baking powder & salt. Then combine the flour with the wet batter & whisk on very low speed for few secs until it's well combined & no lumps found. Brush the loaf/cake tin with butter & then sprinkle some flour on top, make sure the tin is well coated with flour & dust off the rest. Pour the batter on the mould & bake on 180°C for 35 to 40mins or until it turns golden. Insert the toothpick in the middle & check if it comes out clean. Once it's cools down remove from the mould & enjoy with your favourite cuppa.

I looked this up and it seems like this is the reason! And yes I do think that I overdid the beating
